Dallas Moving Forward

Barcadia Dallas is a fantastic spot where you can enjoy a blast from the past with classic arcade murals and vintage games. They've even added modern touches like play cards to improve your experience. It's the perfect place to challenge your partner, friends, and family to a game of life-size Jenga on the patio. And if that's not your thing, they also have skee ball machines, a pool table, air hockey, HD sports, and the famous Guitar Hero. Who needs fancy bars with dress codes and expensive drinks when you can have all this fun? It's a playful venue for bar bites, an extensive beer menu, and games galore.

Check out the Grapevine Vintage Railroad, where history and hospitality combine to create unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime. As you climb aboard, you'll be transported back to the 1920s, with authentic coaches lovingly restored to their former glory. And don't worry about the summer heat; the coaches are fully air-conditioned, so you can sit back and relax comfortably. But be warned, some shady characters are lurking around, and Deputy Maverick may call on you to help during the Great Grapevine Train Heist. Keep your eyes peeled and your wits about you; you might save the day.

If you're a fan of Bluegrass, the Bloomin' Bluegrass Festival is an event you won't want to miss. With two stages and two full days of traditional and progressive Bluegrass, as well as Americana and country sounds, there's something for everyone. And if you're lucky, you might even stumble upon one of the impromptu jam sessions that happen throughout the festival grounds. These jam sessions are always organic and full of talented musicians eager to share their love of Bluegrass. But that's not all the festival has to offer. You'll also have the opportunity to take up-close photos of the beautiful varieties grown in Farmers Branch. And of course, no festival would be complete without delicious food options. You can indulge in local favorites like Mex-Mex, corny dogs, roasted corn, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and more. And if you're looking for something to wash it all down, there's a great selection of premium and local craft beers, wines, and frozen wineries to choose from.
